To me, all educated Indians carrying android phones and iphones are unnecessarily getting worked up over privacy. Once they have signed up for FB, Android or iPhone, they have already given more information to these entities than a finger print and address. With all the stupid cacophony in educated ...

>> Look at the way they pour powder into the brass. It's very uneven. This is likely how OFB does it's powder allocation. I doubt it. making of bombs and shells at huge automated plants is a lot different from dara adam khel, they could not meet supply requirements in that mode nor meet any safety ...

#ModiSarkar is all about optics, and that is one of the core strategy to inculcate positive vibes into Janta. Changing the base GDP numbers is one such case which has generated 'feel good' on the economy, and that is key for increased confidence. Most of the things ModiSarkar is doing will center ar...

So milind, Can you share what you concluded on recent electionis in just general way? Or do you want us to die of agony with rNDTV type water torture? BJP states (Chhattisgarh + Gujarat + MP + Rajasthan + Goa : 100 seats ) : expected 88-94 United UP (UP + Bihar + Jharkhand + Uttarakhand : 139 seats...

1.2 crore new voters registered in UP in last 8 months, that's 9% of total voters of UP. 79% of them are under 35 (around 10% advantage for the Party across all caste groups) I can only laugh when Journos say there is no NaMo wave. 9% motivated voters, how will they vote will decide this election. :...

All, don't know where this news should go but being a BRFite wanted to share with comrades I was big part of this http://www.informationweek.in/informationweek/news-analysis/295826/hyderabad-analytics-startup-builds-india-largest-electoral-repository-814-crore-voters And I guess you have figured ou...

Congratulation Milindc ji!! does it mean one can cross check for if a single identity has a multiple entries in different poll rolls across India? That's the simplest thing... in one of kind attempt ever, we merged socio-economic with electoral data to profile polling booths... and drive very detai...

Agree with you. I checked back. it is only coast above river Krishna that M are very less. So far I was thinking there is some magic of YSR that he was able to get such a traction. It is too simple and just KHAM factor of INC that he grabbed. TDP has restored its OBC magic after it got back kapus. ...

Jagan: 22% SC (and ST) + 7% Reddy + 5-11% Muslims (depending on each district). He has formidable demographic advantage which would sweep the region. Naidu was lucky to have alliance with BJP which didn't split the rest of the vote. With Pawan Kalyan joining the fray, the Kapus will not be rudderles...

Average size of loksabha constituency is now 82 crore / 543 = 15.10 lakhs. Now there are my constitiency in north east and other areas which are very small. So population in UP constituencies should be much larger. So above data is stale. My take is --- non-Hindu voters are over 30% and dalits are ...

welcome back milindc. What's your prognosis on seats in SA assembly (and LS)? Any chance the new attempts to wrest kapu vote away from TDP (e.g., Pawan kalyan's farty) may work a second time? Just curious... only. Kapu vote is up for taking for TDP but it is not evenly spread. They are already conc...

Jagan is a major player just due to the demographics. If the data is right, then it will be tough fight for SA between TDP and YSRCP. Even the surveys point to lead with Jagan. Muslim vote will go with Jagan, and then the Reddy vote will be split. Major converted population, along with SC will go wi...

Telugus are sought to be made refugees in their own land. One will become Razakaristan and the other Yeshuland. Question now is what will Telugu biddas do? Get out of the Kamma vs Reddy politics and the underlying criminality of using govt largesse , power and patronage to build up corrupt business...

Here are the quotes from a RSS functionary in Telangana. That's what I'm saying. How do you extrapolate some anonymous dude saying something on twitter to Telangana becoming Razakaristan ? Some serious imagination ! Thats a common narrative with many flavors by #Telangana folks, search Nizam and Te...

Vijay Jolly has made an ass of himself and the party by his actions in Dilli. I strongly urge the party to take following actions: 1) Act quickly and speak with a single voice condemning this vandalism 2) Suspend him for X years or expel him 3) Tell him to clean up the vandalized property 4) Make c...

So if 100 acres of land is needed for setting up a semiconductor fab in what is technically a rural area, it ll need 80% consent..if the cost of land is say 20 crores, an additional 80 crore will go to compensation..so 120 crore might just be the cost of getting the land..who would want to set up a...

In return, however, the BCCI is offering handsome financial packages one of which include that all the media right income will be awarded to the PCB which is desperately looking to improve its financial position. What!! The baniya in me (by marriage) is infuriated, to put it mildly. That is one bum...

<SNIP>The concept of Sahayak may also need a relook here. <SNIP> Can we stop bringing in tangential arguments here? What has all this got to do with Sahayak system? doe the report say anything about Sahayak misbehaving or anything of the sort? There is no need to flame a discussion with unrelated a...

milindc Indian pm is cannot be our pm because he is not sharing concerns of people in TamilNadu. I wanted to claim India to be my/our country but not the present primeminister as our PM. He has lost credibility of being a PM and should give way for next generation. but some of you guys when you can...

["Arjun"] Atish seems to be the new star in the making...[] Wait for Indian "liberals" to react to this. He needs a pre-emptive support from us else he will be media's scape goat. NDTV will eat him alive. Who Aatish Taseer? He is eloquence personified, and easily take out NDTV b...

Present position of agri in India and the bad state of farmers is not because governament has not done things like land redistribution etc. When Ambani can have 1 Lac crores and own most of the oil production in the nation how we can present some one from holding say 100 Acres? From 1951 the leftis...

yup....same with agri. but ownership of land can't be roboticized. :) it is still owned by someone. Yes, the ownership is splintered completely on Deccan Plateau. If you have more 10 acres, the price of land automatically doubles. The only big tracks are the ones bought by neo-rich (either politici...
